Food & drinks: Great Food. The 'legendary' hanging kebab with the tandoori chicken lived up to its name. Lovely place to eat. Dog friendly.

A lovely pub in a beautiful setting but very overpriced. The food was average with lots of chips to fill you up. Wine at £9 for the cheapest glass of Merlot was unacceptable. If pubs want to charge these prices they should expect less business. Will not be returning.

This place never fails to deliver, we often stop en-route to the lakes as we know we can always get a snack/meal, portions are large and staff friendly & helpful. Definitely recommend. We have stayed over here as well, rooms clean and comfortable, will stay again soon.

Been here to multiple times now after staying in local cottage. Great food and very welcoming, especially to our 3 large mastiff dogs. They always manage to find us a good space so the dogs can settle. This visit was for Christmas Lunch on Christmas day, the food was excellent and we love the new wine selection.

The King's Head was awarded 2022/23 'Pub Of The Year' by the prestigious Luxury Travel Guide. When you visit you will soon understand why they gained this award. We stayed one night here in superb accomodation and had both an evening meal and breakfast. The food was delicious, we had the steak and ale pie, mash, peas & gravy for our evening meal, possibly the best pub grub we have eaten! The breakfast menu was varied and catered for all, the 'full English' was like a banquet it included so much. They are extremely dog friendly. Such a lovely village pub, open fire, good ale, even cut-glass decanters for water and juice. The staff did everything possible to ensure we enjoyed our visit. We will return!

5 star luxury in a delightful Cumbrian village for reasonable prices. I stayed for 3 nights. The Owner and his staff bent over backwards to be hospitable, professional and accommodating. Great local ales on tap, produce sourced thoughtfully from local purveyors and turned into wonderful food. The kippers in the morning were sensational. A warm, brilliant oasis in what was a wet December week. Highly recommend it to all.Rooms: Spacious bathrooms and large beds.Food & drinks: Delicious fare produced with local food and ales.

Stayed 3 nights, home base for adventures to see the Fell ponies, explored the Yorkshire Dales and southern part of Lake District. We took the train up from Euston London to Oxenholme, car hire in Kendal then short 30 minute drive to Kings Head. Filling breakfast and dinners of meat pies, fish and chips, pizza and kebabs. All staff attentive and friendly. Beautiful location next to small river. Rooms clean and recently renovated. Comfortable stay at the end a day of fun.

Fabulous two night stay at the Kings Head . As soon as we walked in the atmosphere was relaxed ,and the log fire was burning, the staff were warm and welcoming . Everywhere was tastefully decked in Halloween pumpkins and candles, so cosy. The rooms are beautiful and extremely clean . The food was excellent, and the staff were so friendly, they made you feel that you'd known them for years ,even our dog felt at home . Thankyou to Kate and Charlotte ,who made my birthday special, by singing Happy birthday and bringing me a cake and glass of Champagne . Thankyou to Alex who looked after us too . Finally thankyou to Kenni for opening such a fabulous place, and your hospitality . We will highly recommend you . Thankyou all again so much
